Well, its been quite a while that I have posted anything on this space. Lets see I ll try my best to update it as much as possible. I cross my heart and swear to death that i ll keep on writing no matter what it takes. Though I have taken this oath zillion number of times. Screw me and then only I'll get on track.
To begin with lets start at where I left. That was way back in Feb 2007 when I left my previous company Escorts Limited. One can easily find a blog regarding resignation just a few articles below. So, after that a lot of things have happened in my life which have completely changed me.
Good Bye Faridabad: Last few days at Escorts were hurting me the most. Not because of the shivering cold weather but the warmness that my friends showed towards me. Every now and then there used to be a farewell party where I had to stop my tears to come out. Afterall, maintaining a rock-hard-heart image requires a lot of emotionless feelings. Anyway, left Faridabad on 15th Feb without even meeting with the friends that I made in the last 1.5 yrs. On my way to Bhubs, I called each and everyone of them to say a warm good-bye
Bhubaneswar: My plan was to go to Pune directly after leaving Escorts. That’s why I gave John Deere HR a joining date of 19th Feb. But, later on I dropped the idea of joining the new company and instead came to Bhubs. Called up the HR personnel and gave a vague reason of joining the company a week later. Felt so good to come to my homeland after six months or so. But this time I had very strong reason to come. Family had never been my weakness as they are always with me in whatever I do and where ever I go. Actually I found the lady I love from the bottom of my heart since I was a child and this was the only chance to meet her after 8 years and at least gave her some hints if not anything. I know this was not the perfect time to say those three words and I had only a few days with me. Saying nothing is always better than saying everything in a hurry and a haphazard manner. Met with her two times and got to know her better. The more I got to know about her, my love towards her increased. Independent, frank, totally open to anything that comes, serious when time requires, career oriented, just to name some, were the things that I liked in her the most. God knows what happened to me. Just a few years back when I was in college, I was not at all attracted to any of those hot babes. In fact, everytime our gang used to go to the canteen, all the girls sitting nearby cleared up the space or just left the canteen. But now, I can clearly understand why that kind of thing used to happen. My mind and heart was preoccupied with this lady that I never wanted to know or get closer to anybody else. Scolded god a lot when I had to leave Bhubs for Pune at the end of the week. It was just for 5 days of stay and I felt that I had lived ages in those days.
Pune: New city, new company, new work, new surroundings, and a lot of new friends to make. Joined office the very next day I reached Pune and I was totally amazed by the office building. Never in my life I had seen a manufacturing company looking like this. Even before joining, my workstation was all set, email id created, project alloted, what else can I expect from a new company. Made some really good friends in the smoking zone area. One of them turned out to be from Orissa and invited me to stay with a room near him. Well that was kinda unexpected!! I didn’t even have to roam around with a broker and pay him a hefty amount to get a house. Was just lucky enough, what more can I say. Fortunately, this guy - Dibya Prakash Jena, was quite a good cook. I had to learn cooking badly as my love didn’t know much about cooking. At least this way, I can help her out, no matter how small it is. But two months later, Dibya came out with flying colors of being the best non-veg cook that I have seen in my life and I came out to be the best supporting cook who cuts potatoes, tomatoes, onions and stuffs. That was my limited area and if at all by mistake I touch the hot cooking food, it becomes uneatable. And then again, my life took a U-turn. Things I always hated to do were happing in my life. The engineers in USA were quite happy with the ideas that I showed them and they wanted me to come over there and work for them. As its very difficult to get a work permit for me, 6 months in a year I will be in US and the rest 6 in India. That was the deal that my boss told me. I never wanted to go to US and work for another country's benefit. But work is work. I tried all my tricks on my boss so that he wont send me to US. The last trick was about the philosophy of my boss of not approving a single leave. So, I told him that I want to go home for a week before going to US otherwise I'll not be moving my ass there. Surprisingly, he said yes. I didn’t have anything else to say but to go. Lets see how it turns out.
All in all, whatever happened till now in the last couple of months have been good for me. Although I don’t believe in god, but sometimes I wish I can.
